  • Systems-ADME/Tox: Resources and Network Approaches
    Journal of Pharmacological and Toxicological Methods 53 (2006) 38 – 66 www.elsevier.com/locate/jpharmtox Appraisal of state-of-the art Systems-ADME/Tox: Resources and network approaches Sean Ekins * GeneGo, 500 Renaissance Drive, Suite 106, St. Joseph, MI 49085, USA School of Pharmacy Department of Pharmaceutical Sciences, University of Maryland, USA Received 23 May 2005; accepted 23 May 2005 Abstract The increasing cost of drug development is partially due to our failure to identify undesirable compounds at an early enough stage of development. The application of higher throughput screening methods have resulted in the generation of very large datasets from cells in vitro or from in vivo experiments following the treatment with drugs or known toxins. In recent years the development of systems biology, databases and pathway software has enabled the analysis of the high-throughput data in the context of the whole cell. One of the latest technology paradigms to be applied alongside the existing in vitro and computational models for absorption, distribution, metabolism, excretion and toxicology (ADME/Tox) involves the integration of complex multidimensional datasets, termed toxicogenomics. The goal is to provide a more complete understanding of the effects a molecule might have on the entire biological system. However, due to the sheer complexity of this data it may be necessary to apply one or more different types of computational approaches that have as yet not been fully utilized in this field. The present review describes the data generated currently and introduces computational approaches as a component of ADME/Tox. These methods include network algorithms and manually curated databases of interactions that have been separately classified under systems biology methods.

  • Incorporating Green Chemistry Concepts Into Mobile Chemistry Applications and Their
    Incorporating Green Chemistry Concepts into Mobile Chemistry Applications and Their Potential Uses Sean Ekins*1‡, Alex M. Clark2‡ and Antony J. Williams3‡ 1 Collaborations in Chemistry, 5616 Hilltop Needmore Road, Fuquay-Varina, NC 27526, U.S.A. 2 Molecular Materials Informatics, 1900 St. Jacques #302, Montreal, Quebec, Canada H3J 2S1. 3 Royal Society of Chemistry, 904 Tamaras Circle, Wake Forest, NC 27587, U.S.A. *Corresponding author: E-mail: [email protected] KEYWORDS Drug Discovery, Green Chemistry, Mobile Applications, Open Drug Discovery Teams 1 Green Chemistry related information is generally proprietary and papers on the topic are commonly behind pay walls which limits their accessibility. Several new mobile applications (Apps) have been recently released for the Apple iOS platform, which incorporate green chemistry concepts. Due to the large number of people who now own a mobile device across all demographics, this population represents a highly novel way to communicate green chemistry, which has not previously been appreciated. We have made the American Chemical Society Green Chemistry Institute® (ACS GCI) Pharmaceutical Roundtable Solvent Selection Guide more accessible, and increased its visibility by creating a free mobile app for the Apple iOS platform called Green Solvents. We have also used this content for molecular similarity calculations using additional solvents to predict potential environmental and health categories, which could help in solvent selection. This approach predicted the correct waste or health class for over 60% of solvents when the Tanimoto similarity was > 0.5. Additional mobile apps that incorporate green chemistry content or concepts are also described including Open Drug Discovery Teams and Yield101.
